RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Health services generate large amounts of routine health data (eg, administrative databases, disease registries and electronic health records), which have important secondary uses for research. Increases in the availability and the ability to access and analyse large amounts of data represent a major opportunity for conducting studies on the possible relationships between complex diseases. The objective of this study will be to evaluate the design, methods and reporting of studies conducted using observational routinely collected health data for investigating the link between cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is the protocol for a meta-research study. We registered the study protocol within the Open Science Framework: https://osf.io/h2qjg. We will evaluate observational studies (eg, cohort and case-control) conducted using routinely collected health data for investigating the associations between cancer and neurodegenerative diseases (such as Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease, Huntington's disease, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease). The following electronic databases will be searched (from their inception onwards): MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science Core Collection. Screening and selection of articles will be conducted by at least two researchers. Potential discrepancies will be resolved via discussion. Design, methods and reporting characteristics in each article will be extracted using a standardised data extraction form. Information on general, methodological and transparency items will be reported. We will summarise our findings with tables and graphs (eg, bar charts, forest plots). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Due to the nature of the proposed study, no ethical approval will be required. We plan to publish the full study in an open access peer-reviewed journal and disseminate the findings at scientific conferences and via social media. All data will be deposited in a cross-disciplinary public repository.

El proyecto SciELO se constituye como una iniciativa pionera del movimiento de acceso abierto para la publicación de revistas científicas editadas en países en desarrollo y de habla no inglesa. El artículo comienza revisando los orígenes del proyecto SciELO en Brasil en 1998 y su desarrollo como red cooperativa extendida a 14 países iberoamericanos y Sudáfrica. A continuación, se centra en la iniciativa española, SciELO España, que comienza a funcionar en 2001 con 4 revistas y que en la actualidad incluye 60 revistas y más de 40.000 artículos. Asimismo, se destacan los hitos conseguidos a nivel científico y de respaldo de la comunidad de editores científicos, como lo demuestran las cifras de visitas y descarga de contenidos que recibe, así como la incorporación de sus revistas en índices internacionales de prestigio como Web of Science y Scopus
The SciELO project is a pioneering initiative of the Open Access movement for the publication of scientific journals in developing and non-English-speaking countries. The article begins by reviewing the origins of the SciELO project in Brazil in 1998 and its development as an extended cooperative network to 14 Ibero-American countries and South Africa. It then focuses on the Spanish initiative, SciELO Spain, which begins operating in 2001 with 4 journals and currently includes 60 journals and more than 40,000 articles. It also highlights the milestones achieved at the scientific level and support of the publishing community, as evidenced by the number of visits and content downloads hat it receives, as well as the incorporation of its journals in prestigious international indexes such as Web of Science and Scopus

A lo largo de las últimas décadas, las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación unidas a una crisis en el sistema de publicación científica, han propiciado la expansión y consolidación del movimiento de acceso abierto a la ciencia. En este trabajo se abordan los profundos cambios y avances de la publicación científica en abierto y se analizan las nuevas formas de comunicar ciencia, algo que el nuevo coronavirus y la pandemia por COVID-19 que estamos sufriendo han puesto de manifiesto. La revista TOG (A Coruña) no ha sido ajena a las transformaciones de las publicaciones científicas y acaba de incorporarse al sitio SciELO España, lo que aumentará la visibilidad de sus contenidos y multiplicará su capacidad de difusión entre la comunidad científica de terapeutas ocupacionales, a la vez que se podrán obtener indicadores bibliométricos que den cuenta del comportamiento de la revista en esta plataforma
Over the last few decades, new information and communication technologies, coupled with a crisis in the scientific publishing system have led to the expansion and consolidation of the open access movement to science. This paper addresses the profound changes and advances of open scientific publication and discusses the new ways of communicating science, something that the new coronavirus and the COVID-19 pandemic we are suffering have revealed. The TOG (A Coruña) journal has not been oblivious to the transformations of scientific publications and has just joined the site SciELO Spain, which will increase the visibility of its contents and multiply its ability to disseminate among the scientific community of occupational therapists, while the bibliometric indicators that account for the behavior of the journal on this platform can be obtained
